Back in July we premiered the Julian Casablancas-produced “Fire Away” from Mexican rock band Rey Pila’s Cult Records debut album The Future Sugar.
Today we share the accompanying music video, which is in-keeping with
the track’s synth-heavy New Wave vibes. The entire video is pixellated,
rendering the entire band and their environment into 8-bit arcade game
mode. You follow the band as a player in a first-person car-racing game,
advancing through levels and trying not to get shot down by rogue
helicopters and weird alien-type-looking-thingies. The boss battle sees
you fighting a really terrifying giant robotic tarantula, and then its
head explodes. Wonderful stuff.
